This year, NAPO-DFW will make a difference by volunteering its services to host a Spring Fling - an opportunity for anyone to donate gently used or new items that they no longer need. NAPO-DFW volunteers and Professional Organizers will sort the items and distribute them to the A Christian Food Pantry, Habitat for Humanity ReStore Plano, Friends of Plano Public Library, Prom Shop Project, and the Collin County Animal Services Shelter.
